The chart, fact by fact
Planets
What’s this?Close
The ten bodies astrology reads: the Sun, the Moon and eight planets. The planet says which part of a person it speaks for, the sign says how that part behaves, and the house says where in life it shows.
Sun in Scorpio
The Sun moved from Libra into Scorpio at 10:40 a.m. that day, local time: in Libra for a birth before then, in Scorpio for one after.

Moon in Cancer

The Investigator. Hears what was left out.
24°09′

The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.

Beyond the planets
What’s this?Close
Points read beside the planets. The rising sign, or Ascendant, is the sign coming up over the eastern horizon at the minute of birth: the first impression. The Midheaven is the highest point of the sky: career and public life. The North Node is where the Moon’s path crosses the Sun’s: the direction a life grows in. Chiron, a small body between Saturn and Uranus, is a lifelong sore spot and the gift it leaves for others. Black Moon Lilith, where the Moon’s orbit swings farthest from Earth, is what a person keeps untamed.
North Node in Libra
The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.
10°52′
Chiron in Leo
In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.
1°10′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
14°55′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
Patterns
What’s this?Close
When several aspects lock into one shape, such as a triangle or a cross, the planets in it act together, and the shape says how: easily, under strain, or with one planet as the focus.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In his chart, his optimism, his discipline and his independence (Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew his attention first.
Aspects by strength
What’s this?Close
An aspect is a set angle between two bodies in the sky at birth. Some angles flow, some rub, and some fuse two bodies into one. The number is how far the angle is from exact: the smaller it is, the stronger the link.
Only the aspects that held from the first minute of the day to the last are shown; each figure is for noon.
Jupiter conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.2°
Optimism with a plan: his hopes were practical, and he built them slowly into something real.
Mars quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°
Drive and hope kept going in slightly different directions, and he aimed again and again.
Mars quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
When to push and when to wait took constant judging, and he learned timing the hard way.
Mars conjunction North Node almost exact at 0.8°
Driven towards his path: he went after the life he wanted with real force.
Mercury opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.9°
His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.
Jupiter quincunx North Node close at 1.2°
Some hopes had to be let go to fit the way forward, and he chose which ones.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Saturn quincunx North Node close at 1.3°
Responsibility and growth needed steady balancing, and he learned which duties to keep.
Uranus trine Neptune close at 1.4°
Change and idealism went together: new ideas came wrapped in dreams of a better world.
The Moon trine Mercury close at 1.8°
Feeling and thought spoke the same language: he could put a mood into words, and his words carried feeling.
Mercury sextile Neptune close at 2.4°
He thought in pictures and music: his words carried a mood, and his imagination gave his ideas colour.
The Sun square Pluto wide at 4.2°
Nothing about him was halfway: he insisted on running his own life, and the struggle made him formidable.
Venus trine Uranus wide at 5.8°
He loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
Venus conjunction Neptune wide at 7.2°
Romance without limits: he fell for ideals as much as people, and his taste ran to the dreamy and the beautiful.
